🏈 Run fits/Block shedding.

[TerryP]

I want to see some tape on coaching against the false step.

I've seen "false steps" referred to a lot more with wide receivers than I have linebackers. That's my experience. A quick search on those three key words ... you'll find a few coaching techniques for that group. Same core principles with lead foot, etc.

I've seen coaches just let their guys do this for the entirety of their career at that school, and it drives me nuts. It's a pretty easy fix for a player, you just have to teach them and help fix it.

On the same end, I've seen bad habits left alone in college. It's my opinion some coaching see a great player and just tell themselves, "fundamentally, it's wrong, but he's getting results." It's a different position, I know, but here's where a guy like Phillip Rivers comes to mind. I can't recall anyone that liked his throwing mechanics. It worked.

Personally, I see it more with WR's. A lot of that has to do with cameras and TV coverages.

I'm strictly talking ILB's in this case. It's my opinion that if a quarterback has a certain throwing motion, and it's working.... usually leave it alone. Unless it's just egregiously bad.

I think we can agree that Rivers was "egregiously unique." (The judges have ruled. They'll accept "bad" here as well.)

I know you are just talking about ILB's. My earlier point with WR's was pointing out its easier to see. I don't know the in's and out's of coaching that position. I know from my experience running track that when I first noticed the "stutter step" at the line for a fast receiver it stuck out like a sore thumb. I didn't call it a "false step."

If we assume the average time for a QB to release the ball is 2.5 seconds, I saw that stutter step as a half of a second delay getting into their route. If I'm remembering this correctly, I first noticed it with Spurrier's WR's at Florida. Then, it was a half of a second late to the "spot."

Same principles apply in both cases, right?

Hmmm, is that Raylen Wilson? ILB for Georgia? Who's he coached by again?
But seriously, great play by Wilson here. Scrape downhill, decrease that space and deliver a big time hit while keeping his shoulders squared. Textbook tackling, can't do it any better than he did here.

Lol, Reuben was a freshman here and was just as big as(if not bigger than) CJ Mosley. I forgot about this, and I think I had the same sentiment over a decade ago as I do now.

Anthony Hill is the closest match to Foster I can recall since Foster graduated. Not the big hits, but his way of attacking the football.

Man, Hill is really really really good. He'll be drafted this year for sure

Here's some block shedding drills from Brent Venables group when he was at Clemson.

Biggest issue I see with our guys is the false step or drop step then read and react. We get there a second later due to that misstep.

You're exactly right. It's what separates our group from being on the level of Georgia's, or Ohio State's. It's frustrating.
